Summary
Proper bowel cleansing prior is an essential requirement for the conduct of colonoscopy.
However, due to the nature of cleansing process, the ideal bowel cleansing preparation
remains elusive.
The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy, safety and tolerability of oral
polyethylene glycol lavage given either as a single dose or split dose. The study will be a
randomized controlled single blind two group study. The primary study outcomes will be the
previously validated Ottawa bowel preparation score.
